Senior Administrative Assistant

Phone: 780-743-1079

I am originally from South Africa and moved to Fort McMurray with my husband and our three children in 2006.

In 2019, I began my journey as the Senior Administrative Assistant at Fort McMurray Christian School. After two wonderful years, my husband and I stepped away to explore life on Vancouver Island for three years. In 2023, we returned to Fort McMurray, and I’m now in my second year back at FMCS, once again blessed to serve in the same role.

I am a wife, mother, and proud grandmother to five grandsons. In my spare time, you’ll find me enjoying a warm cup of tea, going for walks with my husband or spending time with family and friends.

I am grateful to be part of the Fort McMurray School Division once again and look forward to the opportunities ahead. Fort McMurray is home, and I am continually reminded of how God provides each day.

Division Notice

ATA Strike Commencing on Monday; School Closures Starting Oct 6th

As a result of the Alberta Teachers Association (ATA) rejecting a proposed deal from the Teachers’ Employer Bargaining Association (TEBA), all FMPSD schools will be closed to students starting Monday, October 6, 2025, unless a new agreement is reached or strike action is otherwise averted. Additionally, all yellow school bus routes will be suspended for the duration of the strike.

In light of the ongoing strike, all extracurricular activities, including sports, clubs, and after-school programs, will be temporarily suspended.

As there is no definitive end date for the strike, FMPSD is unable to provide a timeline for when normal operations will resume. We will continue to provide timely updates as we receive them from the Ministry of Education and Child Care.
